From 10 rejections to 1 dream investment banking internship
“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
too much irrelevant information.
" Conceptualized and trained from the company through intensive program on investing in Forex and Equity market. After completion, got an offer for the academy room supervisor. My main responsibilities were to persuade and direct newbie traders to join the academy program and provide assistance on the trading room." - Put your responsibilities in bullet points. A busy recruiter/I banker doesn't care if you got an offer after completion
High school Vice president of class and advisor of 15th council of students o Elected three years in row as vice president and last year as advisor. o Organized parties and sold memento calendars-t-shirts to raise funds for our 7day trip abroad. - No one cares that you were elected 3 years in a row as VP of you HS. This is irrelevant information
Bloomberg-Reuters(basic understanding),Eviews8,Specialized in Excel(VBA) - Inconsistent formating, add spaces after your commas
-Theres a lot of inconsistent formatting overall
First of all, thank you for your service.
For example; Enacted a redeployment plan for 30 aviators and transferred operations from combat to garrison resulting in cost savings in the millions of dollars since aviators would not require retraining.
"since aviators would not require retraining." - doesn't really add value; you can further explain this in interviews if need be
You can also just shorten your sentences in general. E.g: Enacted redeployment plan for 30 aviators and transferred operations from combat to garrison resulting in multi-million dollar cost savings - I didn't remove a ton of information, but if you do similar things to all other sentences, then you can probably fit everything on one page.
